Unfortunately, it will also result in yet another delay in an already lengthy wait for his first shot at the heavyweight crown. A ruling was made during the 58th annual World Boxing Council (WBC) Convention which ensures Whyte’s place in line as the mandatory challenger to the title. However, the promise made at the convention one year ago is no longer in place. Instead, he will have to wait for the fight to be ordered shortly after the third clash between WBC and lineal heavyweight champion Tyson Fury and former titlist Deontay Wilder.
